Carcassonne Abbey & Mayor Expansion

The Abbey & Mayor is the fifth key expansion for Carcassonne. It brings 3 new wooden piece types, 6 abbey tiles, and 12 landscape tiles. Abbey tiles function like Cloisters, don't need to match adjacent tiles, and can complete nearby features upon placement. Mayors can only be placed in cities, and their strength depends on the number of pennants in the city. Barns let players score fields during the game, not just at the end. Wagons can be placed on roads, cities, or cloisters and can move to an adjacent open feature when their current one is completed.

How to use: First, add the new tiles and wooden pieces from this expansion to the main Carcassonne game. When playing, you can place abbey tiles like normal tiles, and they'll work their magic to complete adjacent features. Mayors go in cities only, so look for cities with lots of pennants to place them for more strength. Barns give you a chance to score fields during the game, so plan when to use them. Wagons can be put on roads, cities, or cloisters and moved when their current feature is done. Note: Make sure to follow the basic rules of Carcassonne while using this expansion. Also, keep track of the new scoring rules for barns. Maintenance: Store the wooden pieces and tiles in a dry place to prevent damage. You can gently clean them with a soft cloth if they get dirty.
